to the fact that the relationships army-society are becoming firmer.
In this reference the cooperation of the Defence Ministry with the
Ministry of Education, Culture and Science is mainly directed at the
aim of educating the youth on the idea of patriotism. "The University
is a center where the basis is laid for science, creation,
progressive ideas. The University is a place where ideology is being
rooted. Here the youth is educated to continue the mission of the
senior generation, i.e. the Artsakh struggle and building of
statehood. The more knowledge the youth has, the more significant the
progress will be. Today the young people will be practically able to
link the past to the present and understand that the Armenian land
has always given birth to geniuses of mind and spirit. The biggest
achievement of independence is that we got rid of alien ideas, false
values, idols," said Seyran Ohanian. Then the minister of defence
provided detailed information on the process of army building. The
minister mentioned that the Armenian army is noted in the region for
efficiency and everything will be done to defend the borders of the

facilitate the solution of problems which the two systems face, in
particular the preparation for conscription.
